However, the Proclamation did not provide any data or estimates for how much of the $35 billion stems from uninsured legal immigrants and in <em>John Doe #1 v. Donald Trump<\/em>, expert evidence was provided to contradict the claim.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Leighton Ku is a Professor of Health Policy and Management and Director of the Center for Health Policy Research at the Milken Institute School of Public Health, George Washington University in Washington, DC., and has more than 25 years of experience as a health policy researcher.
